Concierge Services
I offer a variety of culinary and lifestyle services and workshops in the New York City area. Click on any of the services below for more details about my offerings, or contact me directly to create your own custom package!
- Shop & Store Workshops
Go beyond the classroom and gain real-life skills with my two-part culinary workshops. Become a smarter and healthier shopper with my private grocery tour. You'll learn how to select the best fruits and vegetables, how to read labels, identify false claims and processed ingredients, and how to prep, store, and optimize the ingredients you buy in your home kitchen. Teen and group options also available.
- Personalized Menu Planning
Take the guesswork out of dinnertime with my custom monthly menu plans. I'll work with you to identify your needs and lifestyle, then create for you a personalized monthly menu, complete with recipes and shopping lists, completely tailored to your lifestyle, skill, and tastes. My personalized menu plans will help you slash your grocery budget by eliminating wasted food and unnecessary purchases, will save you time, and will help you easily replace processed "convenience" foods with real, fresh, whole and healthy dishes that you and your whole family will love. (Available nationwide!)
- New York City Cooking Classes
Learn new recipes, entertaining tips, and essential kitchen skills and techniques in one of my hands-on small group cooking classes. Click for current offerings, and keep checking back as my schedule will be continuously updated. (All classes currently held in one of our two Manhattan kitchen spaces located on the Upper East Side and Midtown West)
- In-home Cooking Classes
Private cooking classes on a topic of your choice in the comfort of your very own home and kitchen. Living in a tiny NYC apartment? No worries! As long as you have enough room to put down a cutting board per each person in the class (even if on the dining table) you have enough room for a class! One-on-one classes, couples cooking classes, and group cooking classes available. Please email us directly for rates and to schedule.
- Perfect Pantry Consultation and Kitchen Makeovers
Whether you're looking to get healthy and eliminate processed foods, or simply need help setting up and organizing your kitchen, my pantry consultation service is for you! I work with clients of all lifestyles and kitchen sizes (yes, even tiny NYC kitchens and first-time cooks), helping you organize and set-up a pantry and kitchen that works for you. With an emphasis on whole, real ingredients (no junk or processed foods), I'll teach you all about the spices, grains, and other goods that will set you up for a lifetime of good cooking habits. I'll also help you reduce and prevent waste with optimal storage solutions for each type of item.
- Wedding Registry Consultation and Personal Shopping
Start your new life on the right foot and make those wedding gifts count by signing up for my registry consultation service. I'll meet with you to identify your unique home and culinary lifestyle, then accompany you to your favorite store to pick out appliances and items that you will actually use and love. Our personal shopping service is also available for those who have just moved into a new home or are looking to set up a kitchen and would like assistance selecting, purchasing, and learning to use kitchen appliances and other cooking/pantry products.
- Original Recipe Development
I develop original recipes and entertaining menus featuring artisanal and brand-name products or ingredients for use in advertising, advertorials, company websites, packaging, and events.
